He has a shot of his UNRESTORED '62 interior.
makes me sick to think that it's unrestored...  ; )

If you are not, it sounds like it is original.  the parts book calls it
Black-white / Silver beige.  Silver beige is the top color (not exactly
white though) and Black-white is the plaid pattern.

Does yours have an armrest in the back?

Mine does not... Simon's does not...  vintage pics do...   hmmmm.

(get me pics of yours!  I'm curious!)
